moshe, everyone was glad I got out [family who were not JWs] and they never laughed at me either. In fact I had to tell my nephew he was right about it being a cult. And I did think how embarassing it was going to be but left anyway leaving my immediate family behind.

Do JW's stay In the Organization to avoid embarassment?
by moshe ini just read this behavior study- called the asch study.
it seems to explain why jw's agree with obviously false wt teachings and ignore warnings inside the organization.
it is all to avoid embarassment from peers, friends and family.

What are the qualifications for being of the "annointed"?
by hubert inam i correct to say that the "annointed" are the 144,000 that will be with jesus in heaven, according to the watchtower?.
if so, in ....luke 23:43...jesus said to "dismas" (the good thief) who was also being crucified along with jesus, "truly i tell you today you will be with me in paradise".. wouldn't this make dismus "one of the annointed"?.
wouldn't this also show that dismus, who had no qualifications for being of the annointed, went to heaven with jesus and became one?.

what is "anarchy"? Is it self disciplined, self relient subordinates?
by The Dragon inwould a person wanting others to be dependant upon them see a society of self-disiplined, self relieant, people capable of solving their own problems as "anarchy" defined?.
why does everyone want other to depend on them so bad?
is their independance a threat to their plans and intentions?.

Anarchy means without government. WTS is against independent thinking. They think and you do or you are an Apostate. Independent thinking is a threat to them.

New Online JW BIBLE COMMENTARY AVAILABLE!
by Jamaican JW innew online jw bible commentary available!.
as many may remember, the yorww congregation recommends that we, as teachers and "public instructors" of god's word, god's name people, should all read the bible from cover-to-cover annually, yes, once each year.
to that end, we have constructed a daily bible reading program, that helps an individual systematically cover the entire bible, in one year.

Any ex- witness catholics out there?
by sosad ini'm just curious - it seems to me that there was no religion so vilified by by jws as the catholics - most esp pre vatican ii (ie - 50's early to mid '60's).
are there any tht either returned to their catholic roots, or were raised jw and converted?

I was baptized a JW for 31 years and finally woke up. There is not a religion on earth God is using. All are money hungry and greedy persons will not inherit God,s Kingdom. God does not need a religion to represent him because he has his word "the Bible."

PROOF THIS JW Religion COULD BE THE TRUE RELIGION
by Dark_Princess inwell in the bible it says said by jesus christ himself... that "the true religion will be the relgion everyone despises and hates.".
is this not the relgion of jehovahs witnesses?..
look in the bible itself it says in john 15:18-19. jesus says, "if the world hates you, you know it has hated me before it has hated you.

What the hell is the WTS saying about evolution now?
by Santisimo indid anyone read the recent wts "special article" about creation and evolution?
i read it and fell of my freaking seat.
get this, the wts now believes (and yes, they want everyone to agree or else) that god created the universe billions of years ago and that nothing was created in six days as shown in genesis!.

The Inquisition. Have you been a victim?
by hambeak inreading crisis of conscience, the part of the inquisition of the chairmans committee is very disturbing to me.
has anyone here been before the jc and treated in such a secretive and destructive manner?
with my temperment i would probably tell them go to hell and walk out.

hambeak, I haven't but my son was. He said they ask him , If there was anyway he could be wrong and my son told them "Yes, and there are four of you, surely one of you can show me." One of them said "No, we can't, you have done too much research." And another one said "That's not what we're here for." Then they DF him for apostasy. I tried to get my son back in and the more I tried, I begin to see the Organization was a cult. Been out now for about 3 years and the elders came to see one time about 2 years ago. I haven't heard from them since.
